Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Ducat ND (1785) from Free City of Regensburg (German States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "F.S." (standing for "Freie Stadt," meaning "Free City" in German) located above the coat of arms on the reverse side of the coin. This shield was added to the coin's design to signify the coin's issuance by the Free City of Regensburg, which was a self-governing city-state within the Holy Roman Empire. This feature sets the coin apart from other coins issued by different German states during the same period.
